<0> Tamahome: crucifix and holy water
<1> OxD: did it start at 06:06:06.666 in the morning too? :P
<2> heh i watched solaris decide to source all its traffic off of the tenth alias on its NIC today
<2> Fun with Firewalls
<3> machine have a long uptime?
<2> it did until right before this happened
<2> client's admins attached serial console, hit the OK prompt and typed 'boot'
<2> not the smartest manuever
<4> heh... hooker had some issues, eh?
<0> windows mindset
<2> not-knowing-the-ok-prompt mindset
<3> heh, yay for OpenBoot
<5> I had the strangest support call of my carreer today
<5> got a call from some panicked chick at some company in plano tx
<5> "do you guy subcontract?"
<5> "uh, yeah, why?"
<5> "we have a NETWORK DOWN and we're in a real bind" blah blah blah blah blah
<5> so they give me an address
<5> I'm supposed to go meet a courier, and install a CSU/DSU in a router.
<2> 127.0.0.1/24 was down?
<5> literally, just take the old one out, put a new one in
<6> <belch> Corned beef sandwich;, fries topped with cheddar, swiss, bacon, and sour cream; and Guinness
<5> so I go to the address
<5> it's a shopping mall
<1> mice ate it?
<5> and I'm like, "wtf?"
<3> isn't the beeb using that poopy Real stuff?
<2> amarok can use the helix engine
<5> so I call the crazy bitch back... "hey, um, I'm here. I think."
<5> so this courier shows up out of nowhere and has me sign for a little box
<6> Tamahome: yeah but mplayer and xmms use it just ****ing fine and it plays other RealPain stuff just fine
<5> then he goes away
<5> then I figure out who the real customer is
<5> it's a damned bank
<2> siglite: did james bond music start playing in the background
<2> ?
<5> the "site" was an atm machine
<2> ahhhh
<6> OxD: when did you get a damn hat
<2> bsims: year and a half ago?
<2> maybe 2 1/2
<6> Ah it's now full time ok
<7> before me
<5> yeah, it's been A Long Time
<2> yeah. i don't usually rock it.
<7> lemme help you with that then
<4> heh
<2> X would like to help with yours
<2> :)
<7> the hound likes me though
<2> the hound doesn't talk to me
<2> like. literally, ctcp doesn't work at all
<7> because it doesn't like you
<2> definitely. me and Lion-O probably spent a few hours collectivly trying to figure it out
<4> OxD: you need to toss the mutt a big meaty 8====@
<2> schitzo: hey, solaris boy. you ever seen a solaris box just decide it wants to source all its traffic from, say, bge0:10?
<7> uhhh
<7> OxD: which version of Solaris?
<6> The oldest Vet in England turns 110 today, a veteran of WW1, he attributes his long life to "Ciggarettes, whiskey and wild wild women"
<2> 9
<4> bsims: works for me
<2> drove me up the ****ing wall all day. only way we could get it to change was declare all the aliases private
<6> Ka-bar: yeah same here
<7> OxD: 7 had a problem with ${x} number of virtuals and something.
<2> this appeared after a reboot
<7> OxD: what did the route table say when it came up?
<2> default was the right one. route get showed us it never picked that though
<7> weird.
<2> though the default didn't have a device
<2> and damned if we couldn't get it to take one
<2> yeah. thats how we cl***ified it as well
<7> OxD: the default route didn't have a device? huh?
<2> not from what i remember
<6> What pisses me off is ethereal shows that amarok is sending the get to the Beeb properly
<7> oh well my default doesn't have an interface either
<2> heh well thats good
<2> but yeah. nfi. my two bosses (old school solaris guys) were on it too and they were miffed
<7> OxD: gimme a se
<7> er sec
<2> NO!
<7> OxD: you should have mail
<2> indeed i do
<7> that's what ${home} looks like
<2> yeah thats about what i saw
<7> it should only source the packets from the one they came in on
<2> heh similar subnet too, oddly
<7> if it's originating from the box then ...
<2> yeah it was a web server in front of the app tier so it was originating traffic
<2> and the tier firewalls were quite tight
<2> if you ever broke into their DB layer, you're a ****ing god
<7> hmm, it shouldn't go from the virtual. only the base.
<7> that's weird. did y'all search sunsolve
<2> no. took us a while to realize it was sourcing wrong. then we just went after fixing the gateway/routing directly
<7> dija.. dija even ****ING GOOGLE FOR IT???
<2> the route syntax, yeah ;)
<7> heh
<2> i don't even know how i'd phrase the problem for google
<7> netstat -i should have shown you packet counts
<7> could have figured out all the outbound stuff was going through the virtual maybe from that
<2> yeah we picked up on the counts from the routing table
<7> goddamn cheex-it's
<7> er cheez-it's too.
<7> they are like crack
<2> though i think we actually saw it earlier when we were doing straight telnet tests but their network guys weren't paying attention
<2> heh yeah they are
<8> i was wondering if anyone's had any experience running VMware's Server software on any variant of linux...
<2> uh, sure. you had an actual question or just wondering?
<8> i'm thinking of installing it... any issues you know of that i should be alarmed about? its either this or three separate boxes...
<7> we just had a discussion about it last week
<7> it depends on what you are doing really.
<2> issues? heh. cron ntpdate for every 5 minutes
<2> other than that, no
<8> OxD cool... sounds good...
<2> if course, if you're replacing three machines, you better put some decent cash into the host box
<2> s/if/of/
<8> OxD: well i'll happily be able to do so...
<8> thanks for the input :) ciao!
<7> lot's of memory too
<2> thats why i put 2G into my new desktop
<2> 1G for my ****, 1G for vmware boxen
<7> o/~ you high fiven' mother ****er ~/o
<7> I think some of the machines that EA has running EAX has 16 Gb in them
<2> heh. we found a client running boxen with 12G of ram, all *actively* used and only 2G of swap
<2> same folks actually manged to run out of inodes the other day
<5> sheesh
<3> 12GB RAM, **** sakes that's insane
<2> i should have asked them how it felt to be stuck in 1995
<2> Tamahome: not when you run 35 weblogic apps, in 5 instances off the same server
<2> but doing that does indicate insanity
<3> yes, yes it does.
<1> no room for failure
<2> oh there's plenty of room for failure. its way easy ;)
<2> those boxes die all the time
<9> what a long day.
<1> one box dies it's a problem
<2> nah. not usually
<2> ey D-side
<9> sup
<7> wheeee. wiki documentation and ajax tookit research
<7> I'm livin' the good life
<9> i finally got in the door.
